Cyber Monday sales banner (hidden message?)

Hello All,

I am new to the forums but not the hobby. I just got back into the hobby again after a three year hiatus and have always loved what FT has done and been about. I am probably being paranoid or slightly pessimistic here, but wanted to ask you all a question regarding the FT Store and the subject banner. I read the banner and specifically the next to last line caught my attention, "Once the kits, gear, and accessories are gone, they're gone for good." Is it just my paranoia acting up or does that sound like they are going to shutter the store eventually? I for one certainly hope not, but i have noticed a decline as most of you all have in new designs, restocks, and overall new products in the store. Thanks for any input (and paranoia callouts too) and I hope to continue participating in the FT community for as long as i am able.

It says: "These deals are only available while supplies last. Once the kits, gear, and accessories are gone, they're gone for good."
As long as "they're" refers to "These deals" there's no need for paranoia. I hope. I think. Oh nooooo! LOL! All good!

a lot of times, companies buy at a discounted price and pass it on to their customers.
when those products are all sold, the next batch will be at the regular price because the company paid the regular price for them.
and sometimes, the products are being discontinued and really are gone for good.
rarely, there's a firesale on everything, and then the company is gone for good.
i don't think that's the case here.
a lot of it is legal disclaimer as well, because greedy people will want the low price even though the sale is over.
